    Ive been looking for a video of the time when Dunphy was drunk and was kicked off the panel at the 2002 World Cup. Also videos of when he worn the opposing teams colours etc around about the same time?!

    Can anybody help me! I really really want to see it again!

    Thanks

    Dunphy was 'tired and emotional' for only one match during the 02 World Cup- it was a nothing game early on a Sunday morning- Peter Collins was presenting :D. Could have been between S Korea and Sweden or something like that. They soon realised that Dunphy was in no fit state to analyse the match, and got rid of him at the first ad break I think. I don't think you will find any clips on youtube as it was a low-key match.

    They should have left him on though, he was more entertaining than the match itself!




    As for wearing other teams colours: when he was an analyst for the Ireland v Cameroon game in the 02 WC, he appeared to be wearing Cameroon's colours- something like a green jacket, red shirt, yellow tie, or something similar anyway. I assume it was in protest to the whole Saipan affair and how Roy Keane, our greatest ever player, was treated. Unlikely to find a video of this either.

    It was piss funny. I was sat in front of the telly having my breakfast before heading to work and nearly spat my cornflakes across the room with laughter when I saw what Dunphy was up to. Peter Collins didn't know what to make of it. I think it was Denis Irwin on the panel as well. Cracking telly :D

    Who could forget that time he called Bill Alf? Lol.

    ok, let me just put it out there: Eamon Dumphy for the Late Late Show!
    that would be class. it'd be so entertaining.

    my favourite recent quote was from this week:

    Dunphy to Souness during a discussion about Wenger's transfer policy: "You don't know what you're talking about, you don't know what you're talking about."

    Souness: "Where did you manage?"

    Dunphy: "I didn't manage anywhere...I managed to stay alive for 65 and a half years."

    I was shocked that Souness didnt lay him out with a box.

    Peter Collins was presenting

    Jeebus, don't mention Peter Collins around here. He did Pighead up like a kipper a few years' back and got banned for his troubles.

    Pighead has never forgiven Boards for that. The day he was shown up for the humourless clown that he is.

    First thought on Souness Tuesday night was 'I wouldn't bother mentioning managing if I were you'. Dunphy could have called him on that, and that could have been a good ruck.

    Dunphy was an absolute disgrace calling for a Cameroon win and wearing Cameroon colours before the first match in 2002. No doubt about this, he is only there for his pension on the basis he brightens up your day with stints like this.

    Zero credibility, zero respect for auld jouneymen like Dunphy who don't know their place.

    Although for talking garbage he's up there with Bertie, doesn't prove anything.

    Dunphy would be a terrible choice as presenter of the Late Late.

    I hope he does one day , Iggnorent little man .

    my favourite dunphy moment was when he said something about scotland I think it was, and bill said something along the lines of 'that might be considered a bit racist' to which dunphy replied without a moments pause 'it's not racism, it's ethnic criticism'.

    Is he drunk in this clip?!!

    There has probably been many occasions when Dunphy has been half cut analysing matches over the years.

    You forgot the best bit :pac:

    Souness: "Where did you manage?"

    Dunphy: "I didn't manage anywhere...I managed to stay alive for 65 and a half years BABY."[/quote]

    Is it possible to email RTE and request an old tape that they could post to you? Would they actually do that for you? Or am I being overly optimistic?

    There was another piece of analysis during the world cup(or maybe it was the Euro championship two years later, I can't remember) where Giles and Souness were covering a really shíte game between some African team and someone else. At half-time, they showed a highlight reel of all the fúck-ups the African team's keeper made during the first half. Giles couldn't hold back and went into an uncontrollable fit of laughter for about 30 seconds. Souness and Peter Collins also joined in. They just couldn't stop. It was just 3 football pundits laughing their arses off for 30 seconds. I swear it was some of the funniest shít I've ever seen. I'd really love to see it again, but I probably never will. :o

    Anyone else catch it?

    They'll send it out to you but they'll charge you through the roof for it.

    I've been looking for a clip of Dunphys rant after the Ireland v Egypt match where he said he was ashamed to be irish and through his pen across the table for months now.

    Souness brought it up there recently when he said to eamon 'thats the kind of match that used to have you throwing your pen across the table'.
